Last updated: August 2026 dataPlasticized PVC compounded with other substances arrives in primary forms — pellets, granules, powders, or dispersions — ready for downstream processing into flexible films, wire insulation, flooring, and medical tubing. The plasticizer content and additive package distinguish this grade from unplasticized PVC and drive classification decisions at the HTS level. Importers should confirm the exact plasticizer loading and compound identity, as these affect both tariff classification and any applicable Section 301 exposure on Chinese-origin material.
